The protest was “organised by the National Coordination for the Defence of the Quran,” the book we are constantly told in the West preaches peace and tolerance.
When have we ever seen thousands of Muslims demonstrating against the jihad terrorism that supposedly “hijacks” their religion?
“Thousands of conservative Muslims protest Tunisia gender equality report,” Al Araby, August 11, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Conservative Muslims in Tunisia have continued demonstrations in the country’s capital against gender equality and LGBT reforms.
Thousands of conservative Muslims marched from Tunisia’s capital of Tunis to Bardo on Saturday, as part of a protest against a government report on gender equality.
The report by the Commission of Individual Liberties and Equality proposes, among other things, the legalisation of homosexuality and making the sexes equal in inheritance matters.
The commission was put in place a year ago by President Beji Caid Essebsi.
The protest – organised by the National Coordination for the Defence of the Quran – remained largely calm and without incident, despite the high passions felt by Tunisia’s religious right over the issues.
It follows a similar demonstration earlier this month, when hundreds protested against proposed reforms of women’s and LGBT rights….
In September, the government scrapped a law that prohibited Tunisian Muslim women from marrying non-Muslim men, a significant step in loosening the tight controls over women’s life choices.
The government is also visibly taking steps to address the country’s epidemic of gender-based violence, passing a landmark law in July which meant that rapists could no longer escape punishment by marrying their victims….

yea for tunisia; hope the pc muzzies will back off and let these people have some semblance of civility in their lives; it is about time. islam will eventually implode (also from cousin marriages) as humans are not meant to live under the conditions imposed by islam. time the imams wake up to the real world

I am with the Tunisians on this! Transgenderism, Homosexuality, Extreme Feminism and “LGBTQ” activism is a new fanatical secular (satanic) Religion in the West and it HAS TO BE STOPPED!

Well, I knew that Christianblood would be. He has never once said anything against Muslims hanging accused homosexuals from cranes, stoning them to death, throwing them from high buildings, or torturing and murdering them in camps on Russian soil.
His only problem is with gay people being allowed to live unmolested.
Why is he even pretending to be an Anti-Jihadist here at this point?

lebel says
They support homosexuality only insofar as it concerns Muslims. If Muslims were against people having sex in public they would criticize as disgusting Islamic evil something something.
There are conservatives on jihadwatch who hold very strong opinions on the subject. Some ignore these topics, others are hypocritical about, only a few will dare say that Muslims have a right to be against this.
What is the issue in the end? a couple of thousand people demonstrated against laws as is their right. Are they all supposed to fall in line and shut the fuck up if they disagree with some new law? The hate on jihadwatch makes people irrational. They are unable to see clearly. For example most of them would be very understanding if Central Europeans demonstrated similar laws in their country.
Susan B says
Lebel I hate islam because it is evil. End of story.
gravenimage says
Who is this “they” Lebel refers to? It certainly does not apply to myself.
And even conservatives–Christianblood excepted, of course–generally do not want to see gay people harmed, even if they do not agree with homosexuality.
As for the idea that we are infringing on the rights of “conservative” Tunisians to protest, nothing could be more absurd.
A key part of freedom of speech is the right to criticize the speech of others. Of course, that is exactly where Lebel is trying to get the ‘filthy Infidels’ to shut up.
gravenimage says
Christianblood keeps posting this, but this was policy under Obama. I have pointed out many times–including copious links–that President Trump has indeed been helping Nigeria fight Boko Haram and other Jihad terroritsts, no strings attached.
And the claim that we cannot support both persecuted Christians and persecuted gay people at the same time (they are, in fact, sometimes the same people) is, of course, just absurd.

And do not marry polytheistic women until they believe. And a believing slave woman is better than a polytheist, even though she might please you. And do not marry polytheistic men [to your women] until they believe. (Quran 2:221)

I know you probably don’t believe in God or in the Bible but
In Genesis 19: 6-7 God calls homosexuality “Wicked”.
In Leviticus 20: 13 God calls it “Detestable”.
In Leviticus 18:22 God calls it an “Abomination”.
In Romans 1:26-27 God calls it “Shameful”, “Unnatural” and “Lustful”.
In 1Timothy 1:9-10 God lists it as one of the MAJOR human sins.
In St. Jude 1:7 God calls it “Perversion”.
In 1Corinthians 6:9-10 God lists it as one of the major dis-qualifiers for entering into the “Kingdom of God”.
To recap, in the Scriptures and God calls homosexuality: Wicked, Detestable, Abomination, Shameful, Unnatural, Lustful, Perversion, A major human sin, a disqualifier of entry into the Kingdom of God. God never calls homosexuality “Gay”, or “sexual orientation”.

What absolute tripe–when have ever said any such thing? And no–believing that gay people should not be murdered is not a “religion”.
And no–I think the Bible is much stronger against murder than it is against homosexuality. I know that Christianblood has lauded the murder of gay people, even under Shari’ah–but I do not believe that there is *anything* Christian about that.

Spot on, Wellington.
lebel says
Absolutely, perhaps too much. As you no doubt noticed. Those in charge are trying to pass some fairly progressive which even some conservatives in the free USA would have a problem with. I guess for you freedom is shut the fuck up and accept whatever your country tells you to accept.
Are you against people’s right to demonstrate? what have they done wrong here? you don’t like their opinion? so what? In your free society what would an acceptable outlet for Wellington.
Expected answer: “Islam is evil, Lebel and that evil will always be evil. It is high time you woke up and stop defending evil. Your other questions make no sense to me and Islam is evil”
Wellington says
Against demonstrating per se? No, not at all, but too bad, Lebel, they’re not demonstrating against such things as jihad terrorism, death for apostasy and the sanctioning of rape. In fact, I feel certain that these demonstrators would be just fine with these monstrosities unique to Islam, which most definitely is evil.
Give it up, Lebel. Islam is malevolent to its core. Can’t reform or rescue rot, you know.
lebel says
It does not matter what they are demonstrating against. Freedom is not just about demonstrating for things Wellington likes. Plenty of demonstrators in the USA calling for all kinds of nasty things, does that make the US less free? of course not.
Sorry you didn’t hear about other demonstrations in Tunisia, there’s been quite a few and they cover such topics as government corruption and the fight against poverty. Not everything in Islamic countries is about jihad.
Wellington says
Point One: It DOES matter what they’re demonstrating against. If the KKK demonstrated against racial equality, would you say it does not matter what the KKK is demonstrating against? C’mon.
Point Two: I have never said “everything in Islamic countries is about jihad.” You set up a straw man again and then knocked it down. There is a great deal of rot in Islamic countries precisely because of Islam, the menace of jihad aside, such things as death for apostasy, a Jim Crow system for non-Muslims, the sanctioning of rape, the inability to criticize Islamic doctrine at all, etc. It’s a long list, Lebel. There is no other religion in the world like Islam and I’m sure by now you know that I don’t mean this as a compliment.
gravenimage says
Again, Lebel’s claim that we are infringing the rights of freedom lovin’ Mohammedans by criticizing their position is utterly ridiculous.
Lydia Church says
I do agree since homosexuality and transgenderism are a sin.
One thing leads to another in domino fashion.
lebel says
This is the honest conservative (minority) at Jihadwatch I was talking about.
Very dangerous statement actually since it omits an attack on Muslims. My suggestion is start with a preface like “Islam is evil and Muslims are disgusting vile creature BUT” and then start your sentence.
Trust me on this, I’ve been here for years.
Wellington says
Many devout Christians, Lebel, think practicing homosexuality is a sin but virtually no Christian wants to kill gays, contra Muslims in untold millions who would be just fine with killing them. Huge difference, Lebel. Really couldn’t be much bigger or don’t you see this, so opposed are you, it seems, to criticism of Islam?
Let me put it another way to you. The real problem with Islam, the essence of its iniquity, is that it allows its followers in this world to use violence to enforce Islam’s beliefs while other religions, though they might threaten some kind of punishment in the next world for doing this, that or something else, or believing this, that or something else, or even threaten that their deity (deities) in this world might punish you, other religions don’t sanction the use of force in this world to insure that their religious doctrines are carried out. But Islam does and this is indeed the root of the problem with this hideous religion. Or don’t you grasp this?
lebel says
Fine, although I would say that in many cases secular states have brought those who would commit violence in the name of their religion to heel. But here no one has committed any violence. They are exercising their right to demonstrate against a law. Period. What is the issue exactly? does the fact that the KKK or anyone bad have the right to demonstrate in the US make it less free? it does not matter what they are demonstrating for since it does not reflect on the country itself. You understand this PERFECTLY in the case of your homeland but somehow when it comes to a Muslim country you tend to have a classic case of double standard.
Wellington says
Well, Lebel, what would happen in Tunisia if there were demonstrations for full freedom of speech, true freedom of the press, complete freedom of religion (i.e., no death for apostasy and no intimidation for preaching your religion of choice and seeking converts), the right of women to wear bikinis, and so on?
And once again, it DOES matter what you are demonstrating for. To be neutral on what a group is demonstrating for, though fully allowing for demonstrations of all kinds, only reveals a moronic moral equivalency kind of thinking.
gravenimage says
Exactly, Wellington.

“When have we ever seen thousands of Muslims demonstrating against the jihad terrorism that supposedly “hijacks” their religion?”
Super comment.
Also, why do so many Muslims from all over the world misunderstand the peaceful religion of Islam when joining Isis?
lebel says
So how many people are we talking about and what percentage of the global population does it represent?
Its going to be a fraction of 1 percent which means that only they truly understand Islam OR more likely, they are the minority which misunderstands Islam.
CogitoErgoSum says
Lebel, the Quran states that it is clear and easy to understand so how do you understand verse 9:29 to mean anything but what it says? Muslims are supposed to fight until all religion is for Allah and the infidels are either dead or paying the Jizya. Seems pretty clear to me that Muslims are supposed to fight those who do not forbid what Allah forbids and do not do what Allah says to do. Muhammad would call those Muslims who sit at home peacefully a bunch of hypocrites. It could be that most Muslims either do not read the Quran very closely or are being hypocrites until it’s safe not to be. (I’ll bet you will tell me I’m not keeping things in context or that I need to learn ancient Arabic to fully understand.)
lebel says
” It could be that most Muslims either do not read the Quran very closely or are being hypocrites until it’s safe not to be. (I’ll bet you will tell me I’m not keeping things in context or that I need to learn ancient Arabic to fully understand.)”
It could be. It sure seems that way if we accept your premise.
The key question is – are the jihadists right? I think they’re not but if they are they have been unsuccessful. The only “success” has been holding territory on a temporary basis and making people lives in those territories hell.
Susan B says
Lebel every islamic country is a conquered country and the native people were mostly murdered or converted by the sword. Islam is the result of “convert or die” and “rape jihad” and “dare to leave and die”. There is hope, I do believe that the Nazis cult of islam is about to expire.

CogitoErgoSum says
Lebel, my premise is Quran 9:29 and what its meaning is. IF the Jihadists have gotten it wrong, what IS the correct interpretation? I can’t even find the meaning of “Jizya” unless I look outside the Quran. Taken in context “Jizya” must mean some kind of tribute. “People of the Book” means Jews and Christians. To me this verse (which is supposedly perfect and eternal) means fight all unbelievers until they are converted to Islam or are submitting the Jizya like a defeated people. That has not happened yet so Muslims are supposed to keep fighting until it does. How am I wrong about that? How is ISIS wrong about it? Are you going to ask me to believe that ancient Arabic is not capable of being translated into English or any other language? If that is true the Quran is a dead book for a dead people and nobody today knows what it means …. so the living should move on and let the indecipherable words of a dead man return to the dust along with him. However, I think you know what the verse really means and just don’t want to admit the truth of my premise so you say, “It could be.”
gravenimage says
Lebel’s claiming that Jihadists have been “unsuccessful” not only ignores the 33,000+ victims of Jihad–what a surprise!–it also ignores all the oppressive Shari’ah laws imposed around Dar-al-Islam, where Jihadists have been *very* successful.

“Protests” and Islam are not compatible. Muslims are not free to act out their own choices: they do not “have any option”. So-called “protests” have to be taken with a pinch of salt.
These gatherings are INSTRUCTED in the mosques. Failure to take part will result in a beating-up.

Giacomo Latta says
Quran (2:221): “A man slave who believes is better than an unbeliever, even though he allures you.”
The koran approves of homosexuality even if most modern-day muslims pay lip-service to the interdictions of their local imam. Plus, everything is legal in a master-slave context.

What Muslims hate is consensual same sex relationships. They are mostly fine with pedophilia and homosexual rape intended to humiliate.

Not it does not. It’s freedom of speech for all in the US whether you are a klansman or a buddhist. There are demonstrations for all kinds of things in Tunisia. This is just the one that ended up on jihadwatch. These people have every right to demonstrate against LGBT rights etc. – there is nothing “wrong” with that. You decided that somehow this meant that Tunisia was not as advanced as Lebel made it seem. Thatt is a moronic point and you know it.

Wellington says
You still don’t get it, Lebel. Yes, people have the right to demonstrate against LGBT rights (and I personally am sick of the whole LGBT rights “stuff”), but if people demonstrated against Islamic doctrines in a majority-Muslim nation, yes even Tunisia, then Muslims aplenty would go into full-scale violence mode which would not occur by followers of such religions as Christianity, Buddhism and Judaism should protests be launched against “specifics” of these religions. This is the bottom line here and you are profoundly dishonest by not acknowledging this.
In fact, your blatant dishonesty is so transparent, that you have actually managed to become a parody of yourself. Congratulations.
ibrahim itace muhammed says
Tunisian leader is reviving that madness of ridicling Islam to please the west like dictator Bourgiba who promoted nudity in Tunisia. Unknown to this idiot leader such rascalities are not synonymous with development. Egypt adopted it , but found that it is not helping Egypt to grow. when I studied in Egypt I realised that those girls engaging in immoralities are the least in academic performance. Hence, muslim brotherhood have dominated all spheres of intellectualism in academic and other professions despite crackdowns by military juntas. As such Tunisia is going backward.
gravenimage says
“Nudity” is how ibrahim itace muhammed describes anything short of immuring women in Burqas.
And *of course* he does not consider human right to be synonymous with development, since the only thing he wants to develop are stagnant, brutal Islamic hell holes.
And his claim that free women have poor academic performance is, of course, ludicrous.
That he considers human rights “backward” is telling, considering his ideal is dark ages barbarism.
